Capital Budgeting Process Capital Budget - The list of planned investment projects. The Decision Process 1 - Develop and rank all investment projects 2 - Authorize projects based on: Outlays required by law or company policy Maintenance or cost reduction Capacity expansion in existing business Investment for new products NPV 2
Capital Budgeting Process Capital Budgeting Problems Inconsistent forecasts Conflict of interest Forecast bias Selection criteria (NPV and others) 3
How To Handle Uncertainty Sensitivity Analysis - Analysis of the effects of changes in sales, costs, etc. on a project. Scenario Analysis - Project analysis given a particular combination of assumptions. Simulation Analysis - Estimation of the probabilities of different possible outcomes. Break Even Analysis - Analysis of the level of sales (or other variable) at which the company breaks even. 4
Example Sensitivity Analysis Given the expected cash flow forecasts listed on the next slide, determine the NPV of the project given changes in the cash flow components using an 8% cost of capital. Assume that all variables remain constant, except the one you are changing. Note: Cash Flows the Same Each Year and No Change in Working Capital or Salvage 5

Flexibility & Real Options Decision Trees - Diagram of sequential decisions and possible outcomes. Decision trees help companies determine their Options by showing the various choices and outcomes. The Option to avoid a loss or produce extra profit has value. The ability to create an Option thus has value that can be bought or sold. 18
Real Options Option to expand Option to abandon Timing option Flexible production facilities 19
